I’m A Celeb star left HUGE amount to her kids despite not writing a will before her death from brain tumour aged just 64 - suong
GET Me Out Of Here star Annabel Giles left more than £400,000 to her kids after she died without writing a will.
The ITV presenter, who died from a rare brain tumour last November aged 64, passed the huge sum to her children, Molly, and Ted.
Documents seen by The Sun show the former model — who once banked £16,000 a day working for Estée Lauder — had an estate worth £769,000.
After costs were deducted, the total amount she passed on was £430,320.
Welsh-born Giles did not write a will or declare who the cash should be handed to, but the High Court granted the estate to her two kids on Monday.
The star, who was booted out of school for sneaking off to concerts and smoking in the street, started her showbiz career by working as a receptionist for five years.
But after her talent was spotted by an advertising executive, Giles shot to fame as the face of fashion brands around the world.
The model used the success to launch a TV career, landing roles on ITV hit Razzmatazz and BBC kids’ show Going Live!
She was best known for starring in the 13th series of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here in 2013, entering the jungle as a late contender on day five.
But Annabel was booted out in 12th place after failing to impress viewers at home.
In 2018, she returned to TV in the ITV reality show Our Shirley Valentine Summer.
And Giles, who also co-hosted Posh Frocks and New Trousers, made cameos on Have I Got News For You, Through the Keyhole, and Noel's House Party.
Away from TV, she married Ultravox singer Midge Ure, who co-founded LiveAid with Bob Geldof, after meeting him while acting as an extra in the band’s music videos.
Giles, already engaged when they met, jilted graphic designer Brian Rutherford a day before their planned wedding.
Despite efforts to reconcile, she later secretly married Midge while on holiday in the Caribbean.
BRAIN TUMOUR
They split just four years later, after the birth of their daughter, Molly in 1987.
She later gave birth to Ted in 1998, though never revealed the identity of his father.
Annabel spent the final years of her life working as a counsellor and psychotherapist after training in mental health.
The mum was diagnosed with stage four Glioblastoma, an aggressive brain tumour, last July.
She underwent radiotherapy treatment to prolong her life and died peacefully in November at a hospice in Brighton.
Her children led tributes after her death, calling her “truly one of a kind” and “an enigma to those privileged to share her life".
